How this works in Murfreesboro.
We are a private buyer, not a brokerage. We buy houses for cash or with owner financing and can close on either at your schedule. An offer starts from the county's public record and the four condition questions in the form above, the same math behind every offer regardless of city. Filling in the form does not list the property anywhere. A person reads it and reaches out.
Tennessee foreclosures happen outside of court, under a deed of trust's power of sale after 20 days of published notice. That window is short: if a sale date has already been published, say so in the timeline question so the offer is built around that date.

- Transfer tax
- A realty transfer tax of 37 cents per $100 of the sale price (or the property's value, if greater), collected as part of the county's recordation tax. The law puts it on the buyer (the grantee), though a purchase contract can shift it to the seller.Source: Tenn. Code Ann. § 67-4-409, TN Dept. of Revenue: Recordation Taxes
- Foreclosure
- Non-judicial. Almost every Tennessee mortgage is a deed of trust with a power-of-sale clause, so a lender forecloses after 20 days of published notice rather than filing a lawsuit.Source: Tenn. Code Ann. Title 35, Ch. 5
- Seller disclosure
- Required. A seller of a one-to-four-unit residential property must give the buyer a signed property disclosure statement, or a disclaimer statement if the buyer agrees to waive it.Source: Tenn. Code Ann. §§ 66-5-201 to 213
Inherited or in probate.
A house that passed through inheritance in Rutherford County usually has to clear probate before a sale can close, unless it was already held in a trust or passed by survivorship. Probate here is handled by Rutherford County Chancery Court, Clerk and Master. We work with executors, administrators and heirs at any stage of that process.
Nothing on this page is legal or tax advice. An estate attorney is the right call for anything specific to a filing.
